Re: [CLOSED] Conky Weather TAD script

It does appear to work, but access to data only happens roughly every 24 hours.

When I checked the time stamps of the text and image files in the folder for the past 2 days, the various text files got updated (with actual weather data) only at 2am + of each night.

Re: [CLOSED] Conky Weather TAD script

^ I'm sorry, but I don't see what's going on with the other location.

I am currently testing Paris, France and everything is working fine from my location.
If @loutch and @ceeslans confirm that the script doesn't work, I'll close the topic.

Thanks @loutch.

We have a replacement that is better than the original.

Re: [CLOSED] Conky Weather TAD script

@loutch

Your TAD script is not updated.

Is this your address:

https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/weather/@6454374

I tried your location in the terminal for weather_raw (saved to HOME):

$ wget -O "$HOME/weather_raw" --ignore-length --force-html --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/weather/@6454374" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/@6454374"

2026-05-01 19:03:58 (4.19 MB/s) - ‘/home/marens/weather_raw’ saved [45080]

It works.

The wget command at the beginning of the TAD script (for weather_raw) in your case should be:

wget -O "/mnt/9d01359b-9705-43f9-be12-4d6d7f28b12b/Accuweather/time_and_date_conky_script/weather_raw" --ignore-length --force-html --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/weather/@6454374" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/@6454374"

Then your location in the terminal for date_raw (saved to HOME):

$ wget -O "$HOME/date_raw" --ignore-length --force-html --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/weather/@6454374/ext" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/@6454374/ext"

2026-05-01 19:29:47 (2.53 MB/s) - ‘/home/marens/date_raw’ saved [45893]

It works.

The wget command for date_raw (TAD script) in your case should be:

wget -O "/mnt/9d01359b-9705-43f9-be12-4d6d7f28b12b/Accuweather/time_and_date_conky_script/date_raw" --ignore-length --force-html --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/weather/@6454374/ext" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/@6454374/ext"

The TAD script/conky works if I run them from here.
Please try replacing these two lines in the script.

See my post above for @loutch.
Just use your address.

Re: [CLOSED] Conky Weather TAD script

Thanks.

I really don't know why the wget command works for the TAD website when I run it from here.
Try the same command again in the terminal, just remove 'astronomy' from the header.

wget -O "$HOME/weather_raw" --ignore-length --force-html --header="Referer: https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/@6454374" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/@6454374"

Re: [CLOSED] Conky Weather TAD script

OK.

Now we know what we need.
Expert in wget commands.

Luckily, there is the MyForecast script and we can wait a long time.   big_smile

Re: [CLOSED] Conky Weather TAD script

@asqwerth

For me everything works even if I replace the line:

referer=$(echo $address | sed 's/timeanddate.com/timeanddate.com\/astronomy/')

With:

referer="https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/"

Try and see what happens when you restart conky.
I really have no idea why the same wget command works for me and not for others.

Re: [CLOSED] Conky Weather TAD script

^ Probably the last attempt.

This also works (for me).

Note *
The "referer line" is not needed because I used the full address

For weather_raw:

#referer="https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/"

wget -O "$HOME/time_and_date_conky_script/weather_raw" --ignore-length --force-html --header="Referer: $address" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "$address"

For date_raw:

wget -O "$HOME/time_and_date_conky_script/date_raw" --ignore-length --force-html --header="Referer: $address/ext" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:147.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/147.0" "$address/ext"

I still don't know why my requests pass CloudFlare's check, while others get a  Error: 403 Forbidden  which is usually related to the user agent.

However, I tried again because I don't want to be the only user of the TAD script.
That would be pretty selfish of me.   lol
